Even with extreme heat warnings, girls from all over Phoenix are still coming out to 91 West, an indoor skatepark, for Skate Rising’s service project and FREE skateboard clinic on the third Saturday of each month! In the past two months they’ve donated 84 lbs. of food to St. Mary’s Food Bank AND 123 hygiene kits and thank you cards to homeless veterans.

Tomorrow is Rylie’s kindergarten celebration and as I look back on the past year all I can think is, who is this child and where did she come from? She has more courage in her little pinky then I have in my whole body. She’s a thrill seeker, an adventurer and she loves harder than anyone I know.
